The tour was amazing and Jude explained it amazingly. Definitely worth the money if you ask me! It was a lovely small group and the atmosphere was comfortable, even though it was murder talk.

Maya was a joy. Thorough but efficient tour with great context to the Jack The Ripper story!

Went on a Jack the Ripper tour with Maya as our tour guide. She's full of information about the area, not just about Ripper and the victims but Whitechapel as well. We got to see parts of Banglatown, and tons of potential shopping and restaurants to visit.

Jolly good time hearing about disgraceful murders of 1888. Dion was a star

Our tour guide Becky was so knowledgeable and helpful. Half the tour group was running behind to the meeting point and she still took the time to make sure our experience was still wonderful and continued that great experience throughout the entire tour.

Maya our tour guide was great! Time well spent on a very interesting historical event.

I really enjoyed this tour. Maya was very knowledgeable! I knew nothing about Jack the Ripper. I learned more than I wanted to know . . Overall very great and informative. I will be booking with them again.

5 Stars

Our tour was very enjoyable. Our guide Maya was friendly, entertaining and informative. She was also very respectful of the fact that the story of Jack the Ripper is horrific and his victims are still deserving of our respect. I have read a lot about Jack the Ripper but I still learned a few new facts today. 10/10 would recommend!

Dion was our tour guide on a Thursday evening. She was lovely and had excellent local knowledge along with knowledge of the ripper case and his victims. She showed respect but also had an engaging manner.

Outstanding tour and a great way to see the east end. We were looking for a way to see more of London’s history that was a bit outside the box and this tour absolutely delivered. Our tour guide Jude was a brilliant storyteller with so much knowledge and a clear passion for history. I’m a bit fussy with tours as I get bored if it’s really slow paced or dry but this was done through the lens of telling the story of Jack the Ripper, getting a feel for Whitechapel in the 1880s and showing respect for the victims. I also like that it wasn’t too theatrical or cringey and it didn’t matter if you knew a little or a lot about Jack the Ripper. Highly recommend the tour and Jude!

We joined a Jack the Ripper tour and found it incredibly interesting. Our guide, Dion, was absolutely fantastic: engaging, knowledgeable, and a great storyteller. The tour offered a deep dive into the lives of the victims, focusing on who they were and what happened to them, which made the experience much more personal and impactful. In addition, we explored the different theories and possible suspects, adding another layer of intrigue.

Really knowledgeable and enthusiastic tour guide (Guillermo), loved walking through the streets of Whitechapel and hearing the history!

It was a new and fun way of telling the story of the “ripper’s” victims and not the mysterious man.

An amazing, and informative experience that captivated our attention the whole time. Tour guide Denise was amazing as well – so friendly and knowledgeable about the tour. Overall, an incredible way to learn about the victims of Jack the Ripper and the mysterious dilemma of his identity was a thrilling aspect.

Thus far, we have done 4 tours in London and this was my favourite! Our guide Becky was fun, extremely knowledgeable and engaging. She was easy to understand and kept us all to a good pace. Her theatre background likely aided the air of mystery…

We had an absolutely fantastic Jack the Ripper tour in London! Philip was an amazing guide — knowledgeable, engaging, and a wonderful storyteller. He truly brought the story to life and made us feel completely immersed in the mystery of Victorian London. Throughout the tour, we followed the clues, explored the different theories, and together tried to uncover the answer to the ultimate question: who was Jack the Ripper? Philip made the whole experience fascinating, interactive, and so much fun. It was definitely one of the highlights of our time in London. Highly recommended!

Sandra was a fountain of knowledge on Jack the Ripper! She also has a calm and friendly presence and made everybody feel equally welcome. I would happily recommend her tour groups to friends in London.

Very nice guide (her name was Maya) who explained the story very clearly with lots of engagement. She took her times to answer questions, was very respectful to the victims but also joked around a bit when it was appropriate. Overall very nice experience :​)

Philippe was great at showing a large group of us all the key sites whilst maintaining an intimacy and respectful delivery.

5 Stars

Jude did an amazing tour of Jack the Ripper. He was very interactive and painted a great picture of what it would have been like to be alive back then and live in the East End. He also turned it into a bit of a mystery by giving us profiles of potential killers and feeding us more clues during the tour to try to figure out who it may be. We'll never know, but it was very fun and informing and sipping a pint throughout the tour didn't hurt either!

5 Stars

We took the Jack the Ripper historical tour hosted by Sandra. It was an amazing experience – she was delightful and very knowledgeable. Would definitely recommend!
